Whole-Home Window and Door Replacement Featuring Gable Windows in Colorado

Set on a wooded slope overlooking the foothills, this Golden home features large gable windows, a wraparound deck and expansive glass meant to capture surrounding mountain views. Over the years, several windows had broken seals and visible failure, and the homeowners decided it was the right time to invest in a full-home upgrade. 

They wanted replacement windows that would preserve their home's warm, lodge-style character while improving clarity, comfort and long-term performance. Durability and energy efficiency were top priorities as the home experiences high sun exposure, shifting temperatures, and strong seasonal winds common to the Front Range.

The new window configurations—including picture windows and casement windows—maximize natural light while keeping the home's original architectural rhythm. 

In the main living areas, replacing the large trapezoid and picture windows restored the panoramic views that define the home. The updated glass dramatically brightens the interior and reduces glare, allowing the homeowners to enjoy the scenery throughout the day without distraction from fogging or distortion.

With failed seals and older glass, the original windows struggled to maintain consistent temperatures. The new windows provide a noticeable improvement in insulation, helping the home stay cooler during sunny afternoons and warmer during chilly mornings. 

The homeowners immediately felt the difference: rooms that once fluctuated with outdoor conditions now hold steady, providing reliable comfort year-round. Improved performance was one of their primary motivations, and the new system delivers on that need.

The replacement project included a new French door that opens smoothly to the upper deck. This update not only modernizes the appearance but also enhances the indoor-outdoor connection that is central to mountain living. 

Better seals and updated hardware improve security and energy retention, while the full-glass panels keep outdoor views unobstructed.

Although the home required replacement of many windows in varying shapes and sizes—including specialty gable units—there were no unusual structural challenges. The installation team worked efficiently across multiple elevations, preserving exterior trim details and blending the new units seamlessly into the cedar-toned façade.

With clearer glass, improved functionality and upgraded energy efficiency, the home now performs as beautifully as it looks. The owners love the refreshed aesthetic and the reliability of their new windows and doors—an investment that elevates both daily comfort and long-term value.
